"They accused me of deprivation of freedom. Those who stole my car are notorious swindlers and they even spent time in jail," Becali said.

Six people, among whom Becali’s former bodyguard, athlete Catalin Zmarandescu, are heard Thursday morning in connection with this case, while some of Becali’s properties continue to be searched by police officers.

Police officers suspect that Becali ordered to have three taken to the headquarters of the New Generation Party (PNG) in Pipera, therefore, they thoroughly checked the location Thursday morning, along other properties.
